KITTENCAL'S BEEF LIVER AND ONIONS
Plan ahead the liver needs to sit in the milk for 2 hours before cooking to remove any bitter or sharp taste, this is a critical step so do not omit! --- fry the onions while the liver sits in the milk, use as many onions as you desire, I use 3 three jumbo onions, since my family loves spicy I also add in some cayenne pepper to the flour mixture --- the trick to perfect liver is not to overcook and leave only slightly pink in the middle, you may increase or double this recipe --- serve with mashed potatoes or fries :)

Steps:
- Gently rinse liver slices under cold water, and place in a medium bowl. Pour in enough milk to cover. Let stand while preparing onions. (I like to soak up to an hour or two - whatever you have time for.) This step is SO important in taking the bitter taste of the liver out.
- Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Separate onion rings, and saute them in butter until soft. Remove onions, and melt remaining butter in the skillet. Season the flour with salt and pepper, and put it in a shallow dish or on a plate. Drain milk from liver, and coat slices in the flour mixture.
- When the butter has melted, turn the heat up to medium-high, and place the coated liver slices in the pan. Cook until nice and brown on the bottom. Turn, and cook on the other side until browned. Add onions, and reduce heat to medium. Cook a bit longer to taste. Our family prefers the liver to just barely retain a pinkness on the inside when you cut to check. Enjoy!

KATZ'S CHOPPED LIVER
This recipe comes from Saveur maganize and is the liver spread served at Katz's Delicatessen in NYC's Lower East Side. It is more of a pate or spread than a chopped liver, but what's in a name? Serve with rye bread.

Steps:
- The recipe does not call for it and of course it would not meet kosher requirements, but I always soak my liver in milk for an hour or two. I find that this really improves the taste of liver, especially beef liver.
- Heat broiler to high, and place beef livers on an aluminum foil-lined baking sheet. Broil, turning once, until cooked through, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a food processor.
- Place chicken livers on baking sheet and broil until cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes; Transfer to food processor.
- Heat oil in a medium skillet over medium heat and add the onions. Cook, stirring often, until soft, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer to food processor.
- Add the remaining ingredients to the food processor and process until smooth.
- Transfer to a medium bowl, cover with plastic film and chill.
- Note: If you have a small food processor, cut the cooked beef liver into smaller pieces, quarter the eggs, mix with the chicken livers and all other ingredients in a large bowl, then process in batches.
- Note2: I use butter, as I don't usually have schmaltz.

LOVELY BEEF LIVER
Lovely she says and lovely she means. This is so simple and very tasty. I have borrowed the sauce from recipe#18098 Meatballs by Lali- I had some frozen so my dinner was so easy. Full credit goes to Lali for this recipe - without you I couldn't have done it! Use approximately 1 cup of the sauce but you can tell if you want more or less on the liver There may be a bit of extra sauce but it freezes well.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 175°C.
- Boil the rice in the water and milk until the rice is done - not all the liquid is vaporised, you should end up with a watery mixture. Cool.
- Chop the onions finely and fry until soft.
- In the cooled down rice-milk mixture, mix in the liver, onions, egg, raisins and the spices. The mixture should still be quite runny.
- Pour the mixture into a buttered shallow oven dish, put some knobs of butter on top.
- Bake for 1-1,5 h until brown.
- This would traditionally be served with lingonberry jam, but any red tart jam like cranberry should be good.
